There are no spoilers for this episode yet but it is confirmed Kate Hewlett will star as Jeanie Miller once again. The production notes from Stargate Solutions make this out to be a pretty important episode for McKay and a tear-jerker.

well i've wiki'd the name talus and all i get are useless references to loads of different thingsin architechure its the slope of an embankment wall so that's obviously got nothing to do with the storyin science its a bone in the leg.in mythology talos was a giant rock throwing machine made of bronzeso i suppose talus could be an ancient translation of talos. i still don't have a clue what the episodes about though.lets hope for more info soon.

to have an explanation about the alliance, who was involved, who brought what to the table, who didn't, why they broke up, what happened, etc.

well it'd be nice

for once to meet people who where formerly friends with a highly advanced race like the ancients and some thing small/big made them into enemies i mean so far we've not yet seen that on stargate and yet it's a big thing in earth politics! it'd be something totally new an original concept if you will!and yes i know the asurans were formerly friendly with the ancients but they had no choice as the ancients made them!
